Brock Lesnar returns to WWE Raw a month after his apparent retirement


NEWNow you can listen to Pak Gazette articles!

Brock Lesnar made his shocking return to WWE on “Monday Night Raw,” exactly one month after he appeared to retire following his loss to Oba Femi.

Femi was about to present his weekly open challenge to any Raw competitor. When he entered the ring, Lesnar attacked him from behind, sending the crowd into a frenzy in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Lesnar fired four F-5s at Femi, catching “The Ruler” completely off guard. Lesnar smiled as Femi writhed in pain from the multiple finishing moves.

It seemed like Lesnar was actually retired after the loss at WrestleMania 42. Paul Heyman was even convinced that Lesnar was done with professional wrestling when he was seen crying in the ring as the two hugged.

“Oh, did I forget to mention that BRRRRRRRRRRRROCK LESNAR decided to do something with Oba Femi?” he wrote in X later that night. “My apologies. I must have forgotten!”

WWE Hall of Famer Booker T spoke about Lesnar’s possible retirement in an interview with Pak Gazette Digital last month.

“You know, fighters, we never quit,” he said. “It’s always in our heads that we can go out and play one more game. One thing also in this business is that it’s hard to leave money on the table.

“So if someone comes to Brock Lesnar with the right number for one more match, I’m sure Brock Lesnar could hold out for five minutes and go out and do it. I can hold out for five minutes and go out and do it.”

Heyman handed a contract to Raw general manager Adam Pearce for a rematch between Lesnar and Femi at Clash in Italy. He said that Lesnar’s name was already on the contract and that Pearce only needed Femi’s signature.

“Tribal Combat” comes to Clash in Italy

“Monday Night Raw” ended similarly: Roman Reigns or Jacob Fatu yell at each other and one man punches the other to end the show. This time it was different.

Fatu started the night by going to the ring as Adam Pearce tried to convince Reigns that it was time to fire Fatu after his actions last week. But the original plan went out the window. Jey and Jimmy Uso came out behind Fatu to confront him.

Jimmy Uso tried to calm Fatu down, but Jey Uso was having none of it. He entered the ring with a chair. It looked like Fatu was going to be able to defeat The Usos with ease until Reigns joined the fray.

The Bloodline faction worked together to send a message to Fatu. When Pearce came out to formally announce Fatu’s firing, he grabbed the microphone and addressed Reigns. I wanted “Tribal Combat.”

Reigns apparently agreed and the match was scheduled for Clash in Italy on May 31 with the World Heavyweight Championship on the line again.

“Tribal Combat” has been a combat used primarily between members of the Bloodline faction to crown a new “Tribal Chief.” Reigns has been in each of the previous two matches, defeating Jey Uso and Solo Sikoa. The two were forced to acknowledge him as their “Tribal Chief” after losing to Reigns.

Fatu will have to do the same if he ends up losing to Reigns for the second time in a row.

The feud between Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker grows

Seth Rollins came to Raw with a challenge to Bron Breakker, claiming that Breakker couldn’t defeat him on his own. Instead, he got fellow Vision member Austin Theory.

Rollins acknowledged that he had no allies on Raw and had to eliminate The Vision alone. At least one person seemed to be in Rollins’ corner: Street Profits team member Angelo Dawkins.

“Look family, we don’t have to be friends. Hey, we don’t have to trust each other. I can’t speak for ‘Tez, but last week, good care,” Dawkins told Rollins before the latter’s match against Theory.

Rollins said he understood that no one had his back, but he thanked Dawkins for his words and apologized for taking the brunt of Breakker’s spear last week.

Rollins and Theory’s match took fans all the way to the end of Raw with Rollins trying to do as much damage as possible before Theory and Logan Paul defended the tag team titles against the Street Profits in Saturday night’s Main Event.

Rollins got the win over Theory with a pedigree.

When Paul came in to beat up Rollins, Dawkins came out to save him. The tables quickly turned against him, allowing Montez Ford to reluctantly get involved. Ford questioned Dawkins’ involvement and then saved him from Breakker’s spear.

Rollins returned to the ring and began chasing Breakker. But after a distraction from Paul, Breakker hit a spear. Rollins and Breakker began chasing each other and were separated by Pearce and the officials.
